Abstract A search for supersymmetric particles produced in the vector boson fusion topology in proton-proton collisions is presented.

The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1 of proton-proton collisions at s $$ \sqrt{s} $$...

Abstract A search is presented for charged Higgs bosons in the H± → τ±ντ decay mode in the hadronic final state and in final states with an electron or a muon.
